The following errata report has been rejected for RFC7159, "The JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Data Interchange Format". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=7159&eid=3984 -------------------------------------- Status: Rejected Type: Technical Reported by: Alain BENEDETTI <alainb06@free.fr> Date Reported: 2014-05-09 Rejected by: Pete Resnick (IESG) Section: 7 Original Text ------------- unescaped = %x20-21 / %x23-5B / %x5D-10FFFF Corrected Text -------------- unescaped = %x20-21 / %x23-5B / %x5D-D7FF / %xE000-10FFFF Notes ----- Section 1 says: [START QUOTE] A string is a sequence of zero or more Unicode characters [UNICODE]. Note that this citation references the latest version of Unicode rather than a specific release. [END QUOTE] Section 8.2 emphasizes on the characters not allowed by the Unicode norm: [START QUOTE] However, the ABNF in this specification allows member names and string values to contain bit sequences that cannot encode Unicode characters; for example, "\uDEAD" (a single unpaired UTF-16 surrogate). [END QUOTE] The ABNF cannot at the same time allow non conformant Unicode codepoints (section 7) and states conformance to Unicode (section 1). Therefore, there is an incoherence that must be fixed between section 1 (and 8.2 that emphasizes it) and section 7. Hence the proposition of modification in section 7. The other less preferable solution to this fix incoherence in RFC7159 would have been to NOT require Unicode conformance. --VERIFIER NOTES-- The WG's consensus was to leave the full range present in the ABNF and add the interoperability guidance about values outside the Unicode accepted range. -------------------------------------- RFC7159 (draft-ietf-json-rfc4627bis-rfc7159bis) -------------------------------------- Title : The JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Data Interchange Format Publication Date : March 2014 Author(s) : T.
